Question

What are the uses of antimatter?

Answer 1

The “P” in PET stands for positron, which is a subatomic, antimatter particle. The medical profession uses Positron Emission Tomography to inject positrons into a brain and watch for gamma rays that flash when the positrons encounter electrons of normal matter.Jun 6, 2011

Answer 2

Geneva-based CERN made the usual proclamation that accompanies antimatter breakthroughs: we are now one step closer to solving the mega mysteries of nature and the universe. The Big Bang should have created an equal amount of matter and antimatter. But antimatter is scarce; so scientists hope to learn what happened to it and how it works. That in turn could shake up our fundamental understanding of ordinary matter.
